Abstract: A cooling system includes a plurality of heat exchanger assemblies corresponding to a plurality of battery packs and a fluid conveyance assembly. Each heat exchanger assembly includes a first heat exchanger inlet-outlet and a second heat exchanger inlet-outlet configured to receive a heat transfer fluid or discharge the heat transfer fluid. The fluid conveyance assembly is coupled to the heat exchanger assemblies and configured to circulate the heat transfer fluid in parallel to the heat exchanger assemblies in a U-flow scheme with an inlet and an outlet of the heat transfer fluid arranged at the same location. The fluid conveyance assembly includes a plurality of flow restrictors configured to balance the heat transfer fluid flowing into the heat exchanger assemblies. The heat transfer fluid flows through the corresponding flow restrictor before flowing into the corresponding heat exchanger assembly of the battery pack.
